Chapter 11 The AK47 is in hand and arms sales begin
Most of Somali has a tropical desert climate, resulting in high temperatures, dryness and little rain all year round.
Even in the winter of November, the weather here is still as hot as summer.
The port of Bosaso under the scorching sun.
There are only one or two medium-sized cargo ships parked at the dock to replenish fresh water while loading and unloading cargo.
With weather like this, port workers would rather stay under the air conditioner than go out to work.
Not to mention that Heiszhou people are inherently indolent and lazy when they can.
The entire port was sparsely populated and seemed unusually quiet.
Just then.
Two off-road vehicles suddenly drove into the port dock and finally stopped in front of a cargo ship named the Cruston.
The car doors opened one after another.
Six tall, strong white men got out of the car. They were all in suits, wearing sunglasses and headsets. They had cold expressions. At a glance, they were professional security personnel.
After looking around and finding no danger.
A white man stepped forward and opened the door of the second car, and a young Chinese man got out of the car.
It was Chu Zihang and his party who came to Bosaso.
At this time, Corleone, who was on the deck of the freighter, saw Chu Zihang's arrival and immediately took people off the ship to greet him.
"Chu, thank God you are here."
After saying that, he gave Chu Zihang a bear hug with great enthusiasm.
A flash of discomfort flashed across Chu Zihang's face, but he quickly covered it up.
After some polite words.
Corleone then ordered people to move boxes off the ship one by one. There were more than two thousand boxes in total, all of which were refurbished AK47s.
Chu Zihang asked Victor to open a box and took out an AK47 with gun oil and looked at it.
Then he pulled the bolt of the gun, and there was a crisp clicking sound!
When heard in human ears, it is like beautiful and sweet music.
Corleone saw this and said with a smile: "Chu, these are 90% new, absolutely worth the money."
Upon hearing this, Chu Zihang put the AK47 in his hand into the box and said, "Don't you want to send additional bullets?"
"Chu, bullets cost extra, but since we are friends, I will give you ten boxes of bullets for free."
With that said, Corleone once again asked people to carry down 10 military green boxes.
As soon as I opened it, there were all bullets shining yellow in the sun.
"Corleone, thank you."
"Chu, we are all friends, aren't we?" Corleone smiled and said.
Make sure there is no problem with the goods.
Chu Zihang ordered Victor to transfer all one million dollars to Corleone's Swiss bank account.
After successfully receiving the one million-meter knife, Corleone hugged Chu Zihang enthusiastically again, then said goodbye and left.
Chu Zihang looked at the boxes of weapons in front of him and felt a little excited.
This is all money!
As long as you have money, ghosts can push you around.
When interests speak, God must remain silent.
Victor glanced at the box full of guns in front of him and couldn't help but ask: "Boss, can we really sell all these weapons?"
"I don't expect to be able to sell them all, but I hope to use this batch of weapons to make a name for myself in Bossaso." Chu Zihang smiled and shook his head.
Although he was excited, he also knew very well that five thousand AK47s would not be easy to sell in Soma, which is still in a stable state.
Therefore, we must first build a reputation so that we can have a steady stream of business coming to our door.
"Then boss, what should we do next?" Victor asked.
Chu Zihang stared at the pile of weapons in front of him and thought for a while, then asked: "Which tribe is currently the largest in Bosasuo?"
"The boss is the Digil tribe located east of Bosaso. They are a branch of the Sabu tribe, one of the two major tribes in Soma, with a population of tens of thousands."
"Just go to the Digil tribe!"
Chu Zihang waved his hand, and then asked the port staff to put these weapons into the warehouse they rented in advance.
Get it all done.
Chu Zihang and his people immediately rushed to the Dijier tribe on the eastern outskirts of Bossaso without stopping.
However, Chu Zihang didn't know.
At this moment, the Dijier tribe is in a state of gloom and gloom.
The entire tribe seemed to have just experienced a great war, with smoke and ruins everywhere.
Some tribal soldiers were carrying corpses on the road.
There was a strong smell of blood in the air.
Although Soma is stable on the surface, in fact the internal tribes often fight for territory.
You must know that the entire population of Somari is 14.3 million, and the vast majority are Somali ethnic groups, which are divided into two major ethnic groups: Samalei and Sabu.
Among them, the Samalei ethnic group accounts for more than 80% of the country's population and is divided into four major tribes: Darud, Hawiye, Isaac and Dir.
The Sabu clan is divided into two major tribes: Dijir and Lahanwen.
Among these two major ethnic groups, the Samalai have long been dissatisfied with the current Somali government.
Among them, the more radical Dir tribe even openly opposed the existing government in order to become the masters of Somali.
It's basically a double act!
If the government forces were not slightly stronger, they would have been overthrown long ago.
Since the Digil tribe of the Sabu tribe supports the government, they are naturally targeted by the Dil tribe who oppose the government.
Since the government can't defeat them, why can't they defeat the Dijier tribe who are weaker than themselves?
The Dier tribe began to attack and harass the Dijier tribe, intending to annex them and increase their own strength.
If the Dijier tribe hadn't fought hard, it might have become a thing of the past.
Months of large and small battles caused the Dijir tribe to suffer heavy losses, especially in terms of weapons.
The Dier tribe has Western support behind them, and they all use M16s, and even have many light and heavy weapons.
But what about the Digil tribe?
Weapons from World War II are even still being used, so what’s the point of having more people?
Instead, they were suppressed and beaten by the small Dier tribe, and they could hardly hold on.
Ahmed, the leader of the Dijir tribe, is extremely worried. If this continues, their tribe may really be wiped out.
I asked the government for help, but they didn't want to participate in the inter-tribal fighting at all.
This made Ahmed feel that his tribe had been abandoned by government forces.
Faced with such a dilemma.
Ahmed felt that he was really bored to death. He had known that he would not support the government.
As a result, now, I am no longer a human being inside and out.
Just when Ahmed was frowning.
A soldier came to report: "Chief, there is a group of Westerners coming from the tribe, and they want to see you."
"Westerners? Want to see me?!"
Ahmed frowned, a little surprised and uncertain.
At this time, Westerners want to see themselves. Do they want to support themselves?
Think of this.
Ahmed said quickly: "Quick, invite them over."
"Yes, patriarch."
The soldier nodded, turned and left.
…
at the same time.
Outside the Digil tribe, Chu Zihang looked at the Digil tribe as if they had just experienced a battle.
There was a hint of shrewdness in his deep eyes, and he was more certain about whether he could make his first arms deal.
Put away your scrutinizing eyes.
Chu Zihang turned his head and asked Victor beside him: "Katalia, have you sent the investigation results over there?"
"Boss, I just received it. It contains all the information about the Dijier tribe."
Victor said, handing the 3200 model black and white screen mobile phone produced by Motorola in 1988 to Chu Zihang.
This mobile phone, commonly known as Brick, has a small screen and can receive text messages. It was introduced to the domestic market in 1995 and most people call it Big Brother.
Taking the phone, Chu Zihang browsed the messages sent inside.
When I learned that the Dijier tribe had been suppressed and beaten by the Dier tribe due to their backward weapons.
Chu Zihang's expression was shocked, what a great opportunity!
